A vigil to highlight the need to tackle violence against women and girls will be held at Twickenham Green on Monday at 6pm.

It is the tenth monthly vigil on The Green, where there is a memorial bench for Amélie Delagrange.

Amélie was a French tourist visiting Twickenham in 2004 when she was murdered by serial killer Levi Bellfield.

The regular vigil is organised by the Richmond branch of the Women's Equality Party.

Its head of campaigns, Jill Lorimer, said: "Thirty women were killed by men in the UK as at April 25th 2022.

"This social epidemic goes on unchecked. Think of the families and friends who won't have a mother, sister, daughter with them this weekend to celebrate the Jubilee and join us to highlight these dreadful human tragedies."

Richmond Borough Council is accredited by White Ribbon, which is a global campaign that encourages people - especially men and boys - to act and change the behaviour and culture that leads to abuse and violence.
